The objectives of this research were to know what are the differences in hardiness levels depending on sport type (racket or endurance) and find out what are the differences in anger levels depending on sport type (racket or endurance). The total sample consisted of 121 athletes, 58 of whom practice endurance sports and 63 racket sports. In this research were used a sociodemographic questionnaire ad hoc, the Marathoners Hardy Personality Scale (EPRM), the Anger State-Trait Expression Inventory (STAXI-2) and the Oviedo Scale of Infrequency Response (INF-OV). The results showed significant differences in control and commitment to endurance athletes. Furthermore, control was associated with endurance sports. On the other hand, racket athletes had more internal anger expression and internal anger expression was associated with racket sport practice. It was concluded that, endurance athletes had higher levels of control and commitment than racket athletes. In addition, endurance athletes had lower levels of internal anger expression than racket athletes.
